Having Problems Losing Weight?

Are you having problems losing weight, despite proper eating and exercise?

There are metabolism problems that cause weight gain, and when these problems are treated, the weight will often begin to disappear.

Some Common Metabolism Problems That Cause Weight Gain:


Hypothyroidism
  • As long as your thyroid function is inadequate, it will be nearly impossible for you to keep your weight down. The symptoms of hypothyroidism are:
    • Fatigue
    • Weight gain
    • Cold intolerance with low body temperature (under 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit)
    • Achiness
    • Poor mental function
Nutritional Deficiencies
  • When you are deficient in vitamins or minerals your body will crave more food than you need and your metabolism will be sluggish.
Poor Sleep
  • The expression "getting your beauty sleep" actually has a basis in fact. Deep sleep is a major trigger for growth hormone production and sleep also regulates the appetite-controlling hormones leptin and ghrelin.
    • Growth hormone stimulates production of muscle, which burns fat, and improves insulin sensitivity, which decreases the tendency to make fat.
    • Because sleep raises growth hormone, getting 8 to 9 hours of sleep a night that your body is meant to have, can powerfully contribute to your staying young and trim. (100 years ago, the average American got 9 hours of sleep each night).
Yeast Overgrowth
  • Fungal (also known as Candida or yeast) overgrowth contributes powerfully to both sugar cravings and weight gain. Once this overgrowth is treated and eliminated, excess weight drops off.
Insulin Resistance
  • Causes your body to make very high levels of insulin, which causes your body to make fat.

If you’re calling this a diet then you’re going to gain all the weight bad within a few months of losing it. Diets do not work. You can curb your hunger by increasing your intake of dietary fiber, which is filling, so you feel full but eat less.
